Our Purpose

to promote, build and maintain recreation and fitness trails along our waterways connecting the communities of Waterville, Winslow, Benton, Fairfield, and Oakland. This mission is a multo-faceted effort to improve the health of our community, embrace our historic river heritage, provide a model of regional cooperation, and attract attention to the aesthetic and economic values represented by our clean and reborn rivers.

Summary of Projects

The group received a grant in 2008 to design and construct a connector trail from the 2-Cent Bridge to Benton Avenue in Winslow, ME. The project will become part of a major artrery for walking and bicycling, particularly from Winslow neighborhoods to downtown Waterville.

Other grants were awarded some time ago and the details haven't been uploaded to our online system. If you'd like to learn more, contact us (info@grassrootsfund.org) and we'll fill in the blanks.
